6、ycle = collection period + inventory period - payment period. Example: Receivables turnover = 9, days receivables out (collection period) = 41 days, inventory turnover = 6, days inventory in stock (inventory period) = 61 days, payables turnover = 11, and days payables out (payment period) = 33 days.

16、has a predictable dividend payout ratio of 40%, a net profit margin of 12%, an asset turnover of 1.3 and an equity multiplier leverage measure of 1.4. Estimate the firms sustainable growth rate.g = (earnings retention rate)(ROE) = (1 - dividend payout)(EAT/S)(S/A)(A/Eq)g = (1 - .4)(.12)(1.3)(1.4) = .13 or 13%Measures of a companys external liquidityExternal liquidity is the relative speed at which you can trade your shares with
